Well... So far, Spring Break has been lacking in the "getting piss-drunk and partying until 7 AM the next day" department... But I shouldn't be doing that kind of stuff anyway, I need to stay out of trouble right now. But then again, where the hell is the fun in that?! Ah, decisions...

This guy's experience with the police over a website is similiar to what happened to me in 9th grade... Ahh, those were the good old days.

Today at school my friend was telling me about this metal band called "Decapitated". They're sound is along the lines of Cannibal Corpse, death metal with vocals that I couldn't imitate if my life depended on it. Anyway, when these guys released their first CD, the average age of the band members was 14. I just can't imagine a 14 year old kid trying to sound like Chris Barnes. (Six Feet Under, Cannibal Corpse) Anyway, I just thought that was interesting and kinda funny, but it just hit me that 95% of you listen to mainstream radio and would wet your pants if you heard this kind of music, so I'll just stop now.

Okay, I don't know why, but I'm like obsessed with this layout. The site has some awesome stuff in the portfolio section as well... Man, I wish I could make stuff like that.

I think alot of you guys realize by now that girls go for assholes over nice guys, even though they never seem to be aware of it. It's been proven time and time again, and I found a really interesting article about an experiment, "The Deacon Effect", in which a guy was a total ass to girls and they still liked him and all. You can check it out right here - Wow, that reminds me of my friend Ryan.

Some research scientists in Texas cloned a cat. These cloning news blips don't interest me anymore, because we all know where cloning is headed, and each animal succesfully cloned is just another step in the walk to human cloning. Wow, did I just sound smart? Anyway, you can check that article out here.

I know this will come as a pleasant surprise to alot of you - They're making a movie out of Spongebob Squarepants! I remember when I first heard about that show, it was before it was out, but I guess they had been playing commercials for it on Nickelodeon. My friend's little twin brothers were running around the house singing, "he lives in a pineapple under the sea, sponge-bob-square-pants!" When I heard them I couldn't stop laughing, because it was the weirdest thing I had ever heard. Then months later I found out it was actually a real show. Anyway, read about the semi-upcoming movie here.

This site's claim to fame seems to be that they are offering Greek warez... Yeah. But the site itself is pretty good, worth checking out.

Chess and beauty pageants were something I never thought I'd see combined... Therefore, it happened. That's just how the internet works I guess.

PLUG.

Hell yeah, Spring Break is almost here! Seems like most schools have Spring Break at completely different times. This Friday (The 22nd) is my last day of school until April Fool's Day, but my sister had Spring Break like two weeks ago. Weird... Anyway, today in school a big rumor was going around that there was supposed to be a shooting. And in a school as big as mine, no matter how fast word travels, it's amazing if half the school finds out about it. So many people went home and stuff because they didn't feel safe or whatever. I knew nothing was gonna happen, and I can't afford to miss any classes, so I stayed. Just as I thought, nothing happened either.

Woah, this is amazing! I think having a keyboard like that would be pretty hard to get used to, though. I guess I'll find out sooner or later! And now, completely random and simultaneously useless information. The Dragonfly is also known as the Darner, Darning Needle, Devil's Arrow and Devil's Darning Needle, because of the superstition that it can sew up the eyes, ears and mouth of a sleeping child. Aww... That's so cute!

Click here to see a magazine ad for Eminem's upcoming album, "The Eminem Show". And while I'm at it,

No kittens have been killed as a result of anything that I've done... See? (No idea what I'm talking about? this article. Speaking of fatsos, here's a funny quote from one of the best movies ever, Dirty Work. "So there you are tubby, you look like a bucket of lard on a bad day, you baby gorilla! Why don't you go and work a zoo somewhere and stop bothering people. Baskin Robbins called, they said they're down to 5 flavors, you're swelling up as I talk to you. Hello ice cream! Having fun down there, running around?" More quotes from that great movie can be seen here.

People are making a big deal over this, but I don't see what the big deal is. I'd stay in a car for months on end if I got to keep it, especially if the car was half-decent. In other news, I absolutely loathe the new Lil' Bow Wow song.

Oh, and Speaking of movies... Slapshot II is in the works! If you haven't seen the first one, you're missing out. Click here for more.

Dream Theater, an awesome group that has been around for so long, and never seem to get the publicity they deserve, covered Metallica's "Master of Puppets" album in whole. Wanna check it out? Here.

Speaking of Metallica... I have some bad news. We all know that they've been on a downward spiral since 1991, when "The Black Album" debuted, and proved to all fans that "...And Justice For All" was the last good Metallica album they'd ever hear. But things just got a whole lot worse. Hip-Hop producer Swizz Beatz has an album coming out sometime this year, featuring a song by Ja Rule, titled "We Did It". What's so bad about this? Well, besides the fact that it's rap, it's a compilation track between Metallica and Ja Rule. When I first heard about this at school, I really didn't believe it. This song is gonna be on the radio too, probably the first single released from the album. Says Mr. Swizz, "I want to show Metallica got one world going on, Ja got the other." ...What?

I haven't posted for awhile because my house got burnt down. It's a long story, really, but I'll try and sum it up here. Basically, I was just hanging out with a few of my friends in my room, and the whole house exploded. There you go.

Last weekend was pretty cool. My friend Ryan came down on Friday around 5 or so, and we drizzled, met up with my friend Rosie, and... Oh yeah, I forgot, I don't have any reason to write about my weekend on here, this isn't a freaking journal. Well, one thing that happened this weekend that I found to be pretty funny was my friend Tine asked me and Ryan to come to this "prom date auction", and that was funny to me because I never heard of anything like that ever actually taking place in real life. I wish we would have gone, but we had already made plans by then.

In music news, the Deftones upcoming album, tentatively titled "Lovers", has been scheduled for a winter 2002 release. Oh yeah, this year's confirmed acts for Ozzfest so far are as follows: Ozzy Osbourne, System Of A Down (Hell yeah!), Rage Against The Machine/Chris Cornell, Drowning Pool (Boo!), P.O.D (Boo!), Adema (Boo!), Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society (Yeah!), Rob Zombie (Ehh...), Mushroomhead, The Apex Theory, Earshot, Meshuggah, Onesidezero, Lostprophets, 3rd Strike, Neurotica, Seether, PulseUltra, and Glassjaw (Yeah!). Other bands that are rumored to be on the tour are: Snapcase, Hatebreed, SOiL, American Head Charge, Kittie, Darwin's Waiting Room, FLAW, SW1TCHED, Cradle Of Filth (Yeah!!), OTEP, Mindless Self Indulgence (Yeah!), and Filter.

Wow, I'm really losing my touch! I can't even think of anything to put on here. I'm exhausted though, so that may have something to do with it. Listen, I'm sure I've been making alot of "promises" to people online, like plugs, links, etc... Don't think I'm blowing you off, that's not the case at all. Well, it might be, depends on who you are. But be persistent, keep asking me until I either (A) do it or (B) block you.

Damn, this site is pretty sad. I feel bad for whoever put it together... Take a look and see what I mean for yourself.

I really have been packing on the pounds lately... Damn. Wanna check out stretch marks? They're sexy as hell.

I'm not really sure how I feel about paranormal stuff. It all seems like a load of crap, but then someone you know really well tells you something that happened to them personally, and you start to change your mind. Got any stories you'd like to share? Lemme know, I just might post 'em here.

I already have every single South Park episode to date on my laptop... But I'm sure you can't all claim the same. So click here and start downloading!

Wow... Tommorow marks the sixth month since September 11th's tragic events... Is it just me, or does it seem like this was just a few days ago? The last year or so of my life has zoomed by so fast, it's unbelievable. And time is only supposed to speed up when you're having fun, right? Anyway, anything I could possibly say about the terrorist attacks has already been said, so... Yeah.

Think you really know your beers? Find out for sure here.

I always thought it would be funny to take one picture of Michael Jackson every year, from when he was in the Jackson 5 up until today, and make a flip book out of it. Well, it looks like somebody did it for me...

Nerds, unite! William Shatner now has his own "weblog"! OMG DUDE I WONDER IF HED POST ON MY SITE!!!???!!1

I remember stumbling across this site, habbo.com, awhile ago. At the time it was semi-amusing, you basically join and control where your character goes, you can go into different buildings and talk to people and stuff, all within the website. What I didn't know about the site was how seriously some people took it. I just found the website of a "habbo gang", and another where "habbo conventions" are held. That's pretty pathetic, considering the fact that it's all revolving around a site that's nothing more than a souped-up chat room.

Call me sick, but I happen to find Janet Reno very attractive! Oh yeah, and I think that big noses are hot, too.

Bad cops... Is there any other kind of cop?

I hate asking for favors like this, but if there's anyone out there with some server space they'd be willing to let me use, I'd really appreciate it. If I don't figure something out, I'm gonna have to take down the majority of the site, and probably just post simple text updates, no images or other sections. So e-mail me if you can help me out. Oh yeah, I updated the fan pics section, there are now three pages of them.

I've been kinda occupied with other stuff over the past few days, I had alot of schoolwork, and... Okay, I'm not gonna lie, I didn't have any schoolwork at all. I've been hanging out at the trailer park alot. You really meet some interesting people there.

Holy crap... One of the singers from my favorite group, Sooul II Soul, just died. Look! I dunno what I'm gonna do with my life now...

The penalties for possession/sale/cultivation of marijuana in certain states doesn't seem like much more than a "slap on the wrist". In Ohio, possession of less than 100 grams is a citable offense only, with a fine of $100. No criminal record will be created for the citation either. But in New Jersey, if you get caught with 50 grams or less, it's a misdemeanor, punishable by 6 months in prison and a fine of $1,000. And I only looked at the laws for a couple of states, I bet there are some that are alot more severe, and some that are alot more tolerant. I dunno why, but this stuff is really interesting to me. Check the site out here. Speaking of drugs... DON'T DRINK WATER!

Did you know that some people are so attached to their computers that they're actually prone to being infected with certain computer viruses that could potentially kill them? Yes, it's true. Are you virus-free?

Damn, I really miss Sifl & Olly.

If you're into arcade ROMs, this site out, it has tons of files. This "Icy Tower" game is supposed to be real addictive and stuff, but I haven't tried it myself, that's the last thing I need right now. If you're the owner of an X-Box, you might wanna read this.

Today in my Travel & Tourism class, we were in the computer lab. Well, I'm not allowed to touch a computer in the school, which is fine, less work for me, but I was selling this kid a CD player for 20 bucks. He handed me the 20 and the teacher saw it, and told us to stay after class. I tried explaining to him that I was selling him a CD player, but he said he had no way of knowing that I wasn't selling drugs or something. So my dean came down and searched me, he freakin patted me down, checked every one of my pockets (I had cargo pants on, which means that was like 20 pockets), and he made me take of my shoes and socks, and went through every folder and book in my bookbag. He found some pictures of me with guns, which isn't good, and he took those, even though the pictures are obviously a joke. Those of you who know me personally or follow the site religously probably know which photos I'm talking about. This took like twenty minutes or so out of my lunch... Then he let us go, but man, I was really mad.

Since this is a short update, I've got some little "gifts" for you. You can download Grand Theft Auto (the first one) here. Or download Max Payne, or Hitman, or some MP3s from one of these directories. Wow, some of those are really good links. I dunno why, but I love looking through other people's music. Enjoy! Oh yeah, this page is hilarious, I dunno if it's serious or not, and I owe j3llo.net a plug, so check that out.

I knew that tipping the pizza guy was a courtesy, but I never knew it was a freakin' art - Okay, maybe it's not an art, but this page sure as hell makes it seem like it is. Whoever made that must have been getting alot of shitty tips. It must suck to be a celebrity, paparazzi all over your ass 24/7 - Look what they got on Anna Kournikova, she can't even go into the outdoors in peace. Not that I mind the images, heh... Hahaha, I was reading through the forums over at aol-files.com, and I read a post about bombs. Bombs in

general are a very touchy subject, and I shouldn't even be posting about it, because next thing you know someone will say I made a post on my website about blowing up some really important building or something, and I'll be in jail. But this was more of a harmless bomb, a paint bomb. Apparently, if you take a fresh bucket of paint, open it up, toss in some dry ice, then seal it, it will explode and shoot paint everywhere. I think that's awesome, I'd love to put that right inside someone's front door who I don't like or something. I'd never do it, but it's a funny thought. Why do I always feel obligated to include some kind of disclaimer? Anyway, if for some reason you happen to need some dry ice, order something from omahasteaks.com, apparently they include some dry ice with every order...?

If you're looking for any apps, this site has about 20 million of them. Oh yeah, and w0rd2k1.com has four full movies up (DiVX) for download, and the links are working... For now, at least. So check that out. And since I know you're all dying to download some Serbian MP3s, click here. For some MP3s you may have actually heard of before, click here. Oh yeah, and I stumbled across an HTTP MP3 search engine that works pretty damn good, check that out here.

All of a sudden everyone is talking about the upcoming "Resident Evil" movie. I really couldn't care less, I didn't wanna see Tomb Raider, and I don't wanna see this either, but if you're interested, you can check out the trailer right here.

This is gonna seem pretty random... But I definitely remember playing these games during recess in like 3rd and 4th grade all the time. I loved that stuff.

Chocolate Beer? Although the idea sounds kinda cool, I can't imagine that stuff possibly tasting good.

I know that I've said that the Olsen Twins are starting to look pretty good, but I still feel kinda dirty saying that. I know they're only two years younger than me, but I can remember watching Full House when I was little, and they looked like infants! Anyway, if Brent Goldberg, the director of their latest film, would have had his way, they'd be borderline porn stars... Or at least that seems to be what he's getting at - Just read the article.

Having read this article makes me wonder, how the hell does an 81 year old lady get ahold of ecstacy?

Even though people are always forwarding crap like this to me, I still think it's funny. I could probably make an entire list like that of stuff that I've tested and proven to be annoying enough to drive someone over the edge.

Ever dream of seeing Kylie Minogue on an electric bull...? I can't say I have, but damn... I would, definitely.

I'm not really sure why, but I hate flash cartoons in general. I've seen most of them a million times, and there's only a few that are really funny. I just ran into two that are semi-humorous, there's alot of better ones out there, but I can't be othered to go and find them, so check these two out, even though chances are you've seen them before. "I Love You" and Mario Twins - That second link is absolutely bizarre.

Plugs: Pics 4 Profit is somewhat unique, you submit your picture and $5, and if you're the hottest of all those who submit their pictures, you win $20. If you're into that kinda stuff or whatever, check it out here. Apparently, MooCow Matinee offers the best in movie reviews. Is this true? Find out for yourself. Some other cool sites to check out are ephazed, g27.net, Duke-Kim.com, "A System Of A Down", and fantasy9.net. I'm too nice, I basically plug anyone that asks, and it's a pain in the ass...

I just thought I'd let all you System Of A Down fans know that they have a new song on the upcoming "Scorpion Kings" soundtrack, titled "Streamline". I added it to the SOAD section, so if you wanna hear it you can download the MP3 there. You heard it here first... I think?

I saw "Rollerball" on Saturday night, I didn't know a thing about it, I never even heard of it until we were at the theater. We were supposed to see "Super Troopers" but I was the only one with ID so we couldn't all see it. I guess it was alright, Slipknot was in the movie for a minute or two, playing some song that I never heard before, so I'm assuming it's new. Last night I ended up going to see "Lord of the Rings" which kicked ass, I just wish it would have ended at a different part, it's not fair to leave people hanging like that - But that's how people make money, I guess.

I went back to that same mall (Granite Run Mall) yesterday afternoon with my older sister to get "State of Emergency". I went back in that same store to see if they had any copies left, but they didn't. One of the guys who called security was there, and he like nodded at me, I just stared at him the entire time I was in the store, and I didn't make any expression at all when he looked at me. I saw two of the mall security guys too... It made me so mad just to look at them. Anyway, I got the game at FYE, and the sales clerk person didn't even ask for ID. The game itself kinda sucks, I've only played it for like 10 minutes total since I bought it...

Wait a minute... Miss Cleo isn't really a shaman? I would have never suspected her of lying just to increase sales!

Do you remember that arcade game, "Dragons Lair"? It was basically a cartoon which you had basically no control over, but it was interactive by definition, and it seemed ahead of it's time. Anyway, I remember some of the "death sequences" in that game were pretty cool, and you can watch the entire game right here. There was another game by the same people called "Space Ace" (I think) which was basically the exact same thing except it was a different cartoon.

I was looking through c-roll.com and I found this poem, which I thought was pretty cool. Later on, I was talking to her, and I mentioned the poem, and it turns out it's by Shel Silverstien, the guy who wrote these poetry books I remember reading when I was little, like "Where The Sidewalk Ends" and "A Light In The Attic". I'm sure some of you remember these books. Anyway, click here to read the poem.

Definitely check out misfitstyle, it's a pretty cool site, worth your time. I guess I should plug mo0se.nu, who knows, I don't bother trying to keep up with these plugs anymore. One more thing... Don't click here - I'm serious!

Wow, I think I can say that tonight's run-in with mall security was one of the most insanely retarted experiences I have ever been lucky enough to have with "authority". Alright, I'm gonna explain this in detail so it all makes sense, so bear with me here. Alright, I went to the mall tonight with Holly, Anthony, and Sergio. I went into GameStop to buy State of Emergency, and they had one copy left. I had just enough money with me to buy it, but they wouldn't sell it to me, because I didn't have any proof that I was 18 other than my school ID. I was cool about it, I understand they would be risking their jobs if they sold it to me, so I looked around a little bit, and then left. We went back down to the first floor of the mall, and Anthony saw a kid he knew. They talked for a minute or two, and then he remembered that the kid he was talking to was 18. So I asked the kid to go up to GameStop and buy the game for me, since he had his drivers license with him. He said ok, and I told him we had to hurry because there was only one copy left. The nearest way to getting up to the second floor was the escalator that goes down, so we just ran up that escalator, and somehow lost Holly in the process. Anyway, the kid went in to buy the game, but one of the workers saw us standing outside waiting. Of course I was gonna stand near the store, I didn't know the kid who went to buy the game for me, and he had my fifty bucks, for all I know he could have run off with it, so that's why we were standing there. Well, this nerdy kid who worked there saw us out there, and he told the kid not to buy the game for me, because he could get in trouble, and some other stuff like that. Not only did they refuse to sell him the game, even though he had proper ID and they had no reason not to sell it to him - They also called mall security. Well, before mall security came, I told Anthony to call Holly's cell phone to find out where she was. He called her, and told her to meet us in front of GameStop. Right after he got off the phone with her, two mall security guys showed up and went into the store and talked to the nerdy-ass employee, who pointed at me several times while he was talking to them. The security guys came out and told us to leave, and then left, it was no big deal. So we stood there for about 30 seconds or so waiting for Holly, and Sergio went into the store to buy some little plug adapter for 50 cents. They wouldn't sell it to him, they grabbed the adapter out of his hand and told him to get out, and I'm not exaggerating at all. So he said "fuck you", walked out, and sat down on the bench with us. Immediately afterwards, one of the empliyees called mall security again, and I didn't think I had any reason to get out of there, because I didn't hear Sergio curse at those guys. He left to go to the bathroom or something, and mall security showed up again. They went back in and talked to the guy again, and the guy told them that Sergio went into the store and tried to buy State of Emergency, and then was harassing the employees. Well, Sergio was gone, but the cops came out and started yelling at me and Anthony - Holly still hadn't showed up yet, but he had only called her about a minute before these guys showed up. One "cop" grabbed Anthony buy his schoolbag, and the other guy sorta grabbed my arm, and they made it clear that we were in some sort of trouble. I was pretty damn confused, because I had no idea what I did wrong. As the one security guy was walking me back to the office, I asked him what I did wrong, and he ignored me. I was being so polite and calm, I couldn't believe myself. I asked him again, and he said, "you ever been arrested before?" I just sort of laughed, and then he asked me if I ever got in trouble with the police before, and I told him I had a few run-ins in the past, but nothing recent. I asked him if I was in trouble, and he said I was guilty of disorderly conduct, and would be dealt with accordingly. In the meantime, Anthony was about 10 feet behind us, yelling at the security guy who was holding him that "this is bull man, we didn't do anything", etc. I told him to calm down and that he was only making things worse, but he kept yelling. We finally got to the back office in the mall and the guy pushed me towards the wall and told me to stand there. Well, more like yelled - He was really pissed. Then they told me to go into some room and sit down. In the meantime, some cops showed up, and they were yelling at Anthony out in the hall. I couldn't see them from where I was sitting, but I could hear them. They were asking for Sergio's name, and he was saying that he wasn't gonna rat out his friend. They were screaming so loud, it was like he had just curbed somebody or something, it was almost scary because I don't know why they were so pissed. This went on for 15 minutes or so, and then some cop I hadn't seen before came in and got right in my face and asked for the kids name. I told him I didn't know, I couldn't believe how calm I was staying, and the guy was acting like I was lying to him. He was trying to intimidate me by yelling and staring right at me, but I kept my cool. Then they brought Anthony in, and made us stay in there for about twenty minutes. We tried calling Sergio's cell phone, but he wasn't answering. Two cops came in again and were yelling at us more... Basically a bunch of threats and then this little skinny bitch of a cop told me that I was holding information from him and that I was *this* close to getting arrested. He took his thumb and pointer finger when he said "this close", and he showed me an estimate of how large his penis was. Then they left us in there, and about ten minutes later we finally got Sergio on the phone, and told him to come to the security office or else we were both gonna get screwed. So he finally came, and when he got there, some more cops had shown up, there was like five of them now, and the mall security guys told us we could leave. As I was walking away I laughed and said, "man, this isn't over yet", and the one security guy heard me, and asked me what I said. I smiled and told him I wasn't talking to him. Then I told him what I said, and that after they way they treated us I wasn't just gonna walk away and act like nothing had happened. They had up back there for a good hour or so, and I wasn't about to just forget all about it. Suddenly he realized that I might go and submit a complaint about him or something, so he got all nice and started thanking me for cooperating and acting like he wanted to shake my hand and stuff - This isn't an exaggeration at all. He was trying to start a conversation with me so that I wouldn't leave angry, but I just walked away. I don't think I can really put into words ho wunfairly they treated us, I was 100% cooperative with the cops, except for the fact that I didn't tell them the kid's name, but to be honest I couldn't remember it at the time, Sergio is kind of a weird name. So we were leaving the mall, and when we passed GameStop I was so incredibly close to going in there and screaming at that little nerdy bitch, but instead I just stared at him with a big smile on my face the entire time he was in my view as I walked by. I'm still really, really mad right now... And the worst part is I can't do jack shit. Technically they didn't do anything that I can prove, so me complaining would be totally pointless. Later on we had another, less severe run-in with one of the cops, but I don't feel like getting into it, he was just yelling at us for some bullshit like we were trying to break into the mall, when really Anthony was just trying to get to the mac machine right inside the door. I've never felt this bitter towards cops before, despite all of the crap I've gone through with them. Wow.

Alot of people seem to hate Valentine's Day. It's definitely not my favorite holiday, but I don't hate it. Although it does sort of rub in the fact that I don't have a girlfriend, but to be honest, that's no ones fault but my own. I definitely haven't been trying hard at all to be anything more than friends with girls, and I'm not sure why. But anyway, I'm not sure what makes some people absolutely despise Valentine's Day, but I just realized that I don't care either, so that's the end of that thought. Regardless, Happy Valentine's Day.
